Silicon Valley startup brings Japan’s corporate perks SaaS model to the U.S.

A Silicon Valley startup called AnyPerk has struck up deals with a broad range of merchants in the U.S. and for $5 per user per month, the startup claims that it can make these deals available to customers’ employees.

Company perks like merchant discounts can be a great way to retain employees, but small companies don’t get to offer their staff such perks because they’re too tiny to strike up meaningful deals with merchants. Often, they don’t have the HR capacity to manage these deals, either.
